Change-proposals: Difference between self contained and systemwide changes?

Ask Fedora

I could not find explanations about the differences.

What makes a change systemwide? A package that is integrated in multiple variants? Or used by multiple components?

System-Wide Changes

System-wide changes involve system-wide defaults, critical path components, or other changes that are not eligible as self-contained changes. Promoting a deliverable to Edition status is a System-Wide Change by Council policy.
